"A multimodal station for downtown Atlanta has never had a better chance of actually being built. For the first time since the station was proposed more than a decade ago, a broad consensus of government agencies and business groups has been reached to give the project solid support...The expanded project area would permit easier access of all modes of transportation with connections to MARTA and the airport."
